Brief Summary: The aim of this trial will be to test and validate the value of scintigraphy with injection of 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 for the detection of complicated carotid plaques
Detailed Description: Introduction Stroke represents the third cause of death, the first cause of handicap and the second cause of dementia in Europe. Carotid atherosclerotic plaques are the cause of ischemic stroke in about 15 to 20 % of the patients. In presence of carotid stenosis \> 50 %, the risk of ischemic stroke is estimated at about 10% per year when the patient has presented symptoms of cerebral ischemia but only at 2% per year in asymptomatic patients. Clinical benefits of surgical carotid endarterectomy have been demonstrated in symptomatic patients with high degree of carotid stenosis, but remain debatable in asymptomatic patients and should be balanced with the risks associated with the revascularization procedure. There is an urgent need to develop imaging tools that improve the identification of patients at highest risk of developing an ischemic stroke Cellular apoptosis is a key feature of ruptured plaques. Apoptotic macrophages release large amounts of tissue factor within the plaque thereby fostering thrombus formation when plaques rupture. Annexin-V is a 36-kDa protein that binds with high affinity and high specificity to phosphatidylserine (PS) head groups expressed on the cell surface at early stages of the apoptotic process. In addition, activated platelets express large amounts of PS at their surface. In a proof-of-concept study, 99mTc-Annexin-V uptake was detected by scintigraphy in carotid atherosclerotic plaques of 4 patients who presented an acute ischemic stroke and was associated with the presence of apoptotic cells on corresponding carotid plaques obtained after carotid endarterectomy procedure.

Design : Monocentric interventional non comparative study Investigational medicinal product(s): 99mTc-Annexin-V-128 Statistical procedure : Statistical analysis will be performed at the end of the study after blinded review and data freezing.

99mTc-Annexin-V-128 uptake will be analyzed as a binary variable considering the presence or absence of detection and as a quantitative variable for the intensity of signal.
